"Whew~"

"Great!"

Facing the third batter of the three armies, first-year rookie pitcher Hisachi Watanabe couldn't say that he did his best to throw this good shot from the low corner of the corner. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

But even though Hisachi Watanabe had already shot very well, when the baseball was still flying into the strike zone, it was caught by the three armies' three-batter Ryui Horibe and flew out with a stick!

"Ahh … Hit, fast, it's the outfield direction, outfielders pay attention to the guard! ”

"The ball is coming, hurry up and catch it~"

Just when several guards of the first-year rookie team rushed to the baseball landing point with all their might, Satohiko Miyazaki, who had already gone to second base, had already rushed past third base and was running towards home plate.

Seeing this scene, everyone knew that it was inevitable for the first-year rookie team to lose points. The rest depends on how many bases the ball can make the three-batter Ryui Horibe run to the first base!

After a period of scramble, the first-year rookie outfielders finally caught the long outfield shot that bounced off the outfield wall. But when he wanted to pass the ball, he found that the hitter was about to go to second base at this time, so he hurriedly threw his arm and passed the ball back.

By the time the ball returned to the hands of Inuichiro Akai, a shortstop who was guarding at 2nd base, it was already too late, and Ryui, the 3rd batter of the three armies, had already managed to step on the 2nd base safely.

A play-and-run tactic allowed the three Army Reserves to score one point first, while continuing to leave hitters on the second base on the court, continuing to besiege first-year rookie pitcher Hisachi Watanabe.

In addition, the next turn to play in the three armies line is the strong hitter who is the fourth batter who is the best at playing long on his line, Yuya Kikuchi from Class A of the second grade. There is also the next 5th baseman, who is also the team's top pitcher in the three armies, Tai Kurihara Kokurihara, who is in Class A of the second year......

Now, the first-year rookie team's defense in the first half of the first game is really not good!

Pause

Seeing that the situation was getting worse, Kumata Tsuchihara, who was a catcher, quickly applied to the referee for a timeout, and then walked to the pitcher's mound and discussed with the players on the court who also met to discuss what to do next.

"Damn, the seniors of the three armies are so strong!"

"The situation is not good, it seems that the seniors of the three armies are very confident in Watanabe-kun's way of playing! … What should I do!? ”

"There's no way around it, because the seniors of the three armies have more experience in hard baseball than we do, so it's hard for us to take the initiative in handling the ball."

“～～～”

Hearing this, everyone on the pitcher's mound fell silent.

Although everyone is very reluctant to admit this, many people have not fully adapted to the adjustment of pitching when they first switched from soft baseball played by youth baseball to hard baseball in high school.

As we all know, there are two types of baseball: hard and soft.

Rigid baseball, commonly known as red ball, is also a standard ball in professional competitions, and the ball skin is sewn together with 108 stitches of red thread to sew the cork and plastic of the inner liner filling. Its weight is strictly required to be between 141.8 grams and 148.8 grams, and the circumference must not be less than 22.9 cm or greater than 23.5 cm before it can be shown as a qualified baseball.

Soft baseball, on the other hand, is a hollow ball, and the hollow center of the ball is its biggest feature.

Because soft baseball is made of rubber, and because it is light in weight and smaller than hard baseball, soft baseball is usually only used in amateur games in China, or when there are few baseballs, youth baseballs, and women's baseballs.

It is precisely because the specifications of the two types of baseball have their own distinct and obvious characteristics that some novices who played soft baseball in junior high school and had to touch hard baseball in high school have to pay a considerable price to get through this run-in period.

At this time, the catcher Tsuchihara Kumataya's expression became solemn, he covered the lower half of his face with his gloves, and only showed his eyes above and said: "The game has just begun, one person is out, there are people on second base, and the next thing to face is the two strong beaters in the center line of the three armies...... Watanabe-kun, how are your arms adapting!? ”

Hisachi Watanabe replied, "It's okay, although I don't feel like I've reverted to the feeling of throwing in junior high school, but I think there should be no problem throwing some difficult balls!" ”

"Oh! ~" Kumata Tsuchihara confirmed in surprise: "Are you sure!?" Watanabe-kun, if it doesn't work, we'll give up this game and compete with the seniors in the center of the three services, let the two strong hitters get on base, and then try to block the 6th and 7th bats out of the game, how about it!? ”

Hisachi Watanabe glanced at his partner, then hit Kumata Tsuchihara on the chest with his gloves before saying, "I think if I really do this, you kid will never take my ball again in the future!" ”

"Hehe~~" Tsuchihara Kuma smiled: "I don't want you to be brave enough to challenge a senior!" ～“

"Go~~" gave a white eye to the Empress Dowager Bear, Watanabe Hisatochi complained: "You kid...... Actually, although the situation is not in our favor, everyone wants to win, right? Even if our opponent is these seniors of the three armies, the big guys have never thought of losing, since this is the case, then let's fight, how!? The last words were made by Kuchi Watanabe to all of his fellow players on the pitcher's mound.

At this time, everyone on the pitcher's mound immediately answered Watanabe's question loudly.

"Do you need to say that!? Anyway, a few of us used to be good baseball players in junior high school, how can we lose to our seniors as soon as we go to high school! ～“

"That's right, we don't necessarily have much worse time playing baseball than our seniors, so what are we afraid of them!"

"~~"

"Whoever is afraid of whom, if you want to fight seriously, come on! ~Our first-year students are never afraid of challenges! ”

"That's, that's it~"

"That's good" At this time, Watanabe Hisachi saw that everyone's emotions finally came up, and he was no longer as low as he was pressed and beaten just now, and said: "Then come on, let the seniors of the three armies see the strength of our first-year rookie team, come, come on, everyone shout together..."

When the others saw it, they reacted and put their left and right on the back of Watanabe Hisatochi's left hand, and then shouted a slogan together.

"1~2~3~ 1st grade team, come on!"

When the shouting was finished and they were about to disperse, Hisachi Watanabe suddenly stared at Kasuga, who had been silent just now, and saw that Kasugamo had some inexplicable weird feelings.

But soon, Watanabe Hisachi shifted his gaze to his catcher partner Kumata Tsuchihara, and the two covered their mouths with gloves again and discussed in a few whispers before they really separated and returned to their respective positions to prepare to continue the game.

…………

At this time, the first army and the second army who were doing recovery training on the side of the court, all of them had an expression of waiting to see a good show.

Kobayashi Kiyoshi said directly after a stick swinging practice: "Hey~~ It seems that the rookies want to start fighting back!" Feed... Nakamura-kun, what do you think of the next rookie pitcher to deal with the two strong hits of the three armies!? ”

Named Koji Nakamura by Kiyoshi Kobayashi, this first-army regular selection player is the brain of the first army, and the ace ace pitcher of the Aoba Dotai High School baseball club.

A man who bears the team's No. 1 and is known as the controller of the field on the field!

Koji Nakamura looked at the pitcher mound in the center of the court with a somewhat grim face, and said faintly: "As a rookie, it has been less than two months since I first came into contact with hard baseball, and it is impossible to find the feeling of throwing soft baseball when I return to junior high school in a short period of time, because I have not gone through the cruel training of the real game, even if the technique is good, it is a paper wall, and it will fall down if you push it!" If you want to go further, it depends on how much talent this rookie has for baseball! But...... Although the rookie has not fully awakened at the moment, as long as the feeling is grasped, I believe that the counterattack of the rookie must be very exciting! In this case, as a pitcher, if the speedball and the slider are no longer useful, then there is only one possibility...... It's all about adding Change Orbs to fill your arsenal! ”

When Koji Nakamura talked about this, the pitching duel on the court also happened to come to the duel of the second ball!

"Whew"

"Smack!"

"Good shot!"

"Nani!? ~”

When the referee loudly declared that the ball thrown by Hisachi Watanabe was a good goal, almost everyone on the court was shocked by the ball thrown by Hisachi Watanabe.

It's not because Hisachi Watanabe threw the ball ridiculously fast, but because it was slow.

It was so slow that it didn't match the speed of the pitching action, and after Yuki Kikuchi, the fourth batter of the three armies, swung the bat, the baseball slowly flew into the home plate, and finally in the surprise of the hitter Kikuchi Yuya, the batter of the three armies, crashed into the right hand glove of the catcher Kumata Tsuchihara who was squatting behind the home plate.

Speed Dome !! …… Or a low-speed shifting ball in the middle of the ball, damn bastard, does the rookie even hide this method!?

Seeing this scene, the faces of all the fighters on the line of the three armies changed instantly!
